Glasner Opens Door to Marc Guéhi January Exit as Manchester City Weighs Bid

With the defender out of contract in June, Palace now weighs a lucrative offer against the risk of a free departure.

Overview

  • Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner said a January sale would happen if a massive offer arrives from Manchester City and Guéhi wants to leave.
  • Manchester City are considering a move after defensive injuries to Josko Gvardiol and Rúben Dias last weekend weakened Pep Guardiola’s options.
  • Guéhi’s deal expires this summer, allowing foreign clubs to discuss a pre-contract from January, with Football Insider reporting Real Madrid are admirers who can open talks.
  • Glasner noted he blocked a £35 million deadline-day move to Liverpool last summer and suggested that only an offer above the club’s threshold would be accepted, citing £80 million as a hypothetical example.
  • No formal bids have been announced, and Palace are balancing the squad impact of losing their captain against the financial risk of letting him leave for nothing.
